Anything is an improvement on sailings delusional, historic lie with no history to back it up - that kiteboarding and kitesurfing are sailing. Greedy liars - This corruption happens in all sports when olympic money comes into play > > >

Examples:

---Happen with snowboarding (skiing took over -in fact worlds best snowboarder refused to enter)

---Look at SUP - has been running for years mostly with help from ISA - now... talk of olympic funding - and now the canoeing authorities decide they want to be the IOCs partner = $
" the International Canoe Federation is claiming the use of a paddle means it should control SUP" sound familiar?! lol fu$%wits

---Look at skateboarding - in the 40 year history of competitive skateboarding organisation - suddenly the The Fédération Internationale Roller Sports (FIRS) wanted the $ having done nothing in history for skateboarding.

Combining snowkiting and kitesurfing/kiteboarding/buggying is not even a great idea in my opinion. Kitebuggying is really it's own scene, as is snowkiting.

Who knows how to manage a sport better that the actual sport itself?!

When I see the WKL under the GKA(Olympic parters for freestyle via world sailing) and IKA under GKA (Olympic parters for racing via world sailing) I think what a bunch of $$$sellouts$$$.

WKL live cast were possibly the most boring format in all history of kiteboarding - much like watching paint dry. and as for IKA... wtf planet did that come from?! - where you pay to be a member of a kitesurfing organisation into a windsurfing bank account?! lol
